§361. Affirmative defense of claim of right

It is an affirmative defense to prosecution under this chapter that the defendant
acted in good faith under a claim of right to property or services involved, including,
in cases of theft of a trade secret, that the defendant rightfully knew the trade
secret or that it was available to the defendant from a source other than the owner
of the trade secret. [2001, c. 383, §50 (NEW); 2001, c. 383, §156 (AFF).]
